How could I have gotten so carried away? If anything happens to the inheritor, the Snow Empress could skin him alive on the spot, no need to wait until later.
Snow Empress suddenly sighed, no longer wanting to question Titan Snow Demon King. She turned to Ice Empress beside her and said softly.
"Bing'er, you take Atai and leave first. I'll handle the rest."
Hyotei agreed, saying that it wasn't good for Artest to be here, and it would be good for him to leave for a while.
She also wanted to know what exactly caused their fight.
Logically speaking, as long as the matter of the Ice God's inheritance is explained in detail, even if the other party doesn't quite believe it, it shouldn't lead to a fight.
After explaining everything, Xue Di looked at Mu Ci, then flew to a nearby spot and quietly landed, like a fairy descending to earth.
"Let me introduce myself, I am the Emperor of the North, the Ice and Snow Maiden, the Snow Empress!"
Chapter 123 The Snow Empress tells the three the reason
Mu Ci breathed a sigh of relief at Xue Di's polite self-introduction.
Judging from their appearance, they didn't seem to be there to fight or to drive away and kill human soul masters out of hatred.
That's true. There aren't many human soul masters coming to the far north right now. Even the Frozen Forest has only been initially developed, and the outer area hasn't been fully explored.
"Mu Ci, next to me is my fiancée, Shui Bing'er, Shui Yue'er."
Since Xue Di had already introduced herself, Mu Ci naturally couldn't be impolite either. After introducing herself, she casually pointed to the two women beside her.
After introducing themselves and their group...
Mu Ci looked at Xue Di and voiced her question.
"I wonder what business they have with us that requires our assistance, as it would trouble the Three Heavenly Kings of the Far North and the Ice Bear King to come out together."
If it were just a coincidence that Muci only encountered the Titan Snow Demon King, then it could be considered a coincidence; such a thing is not impossible.
But now that the three kings of the far north have appeared together, and their target is clearly the three of them, it can't be a coincidence. Something must have happened in the far north that they don't know about.
And it must be something extremely important.
Upon hearing Mu Ci's words, Xue Di's cherry lips curved slightly. She hadn't expected that human soul masters from the outside world would address them in this way.
"The Three Kings of the Far North? That's an interesting title. It seems you know quite a bit about us?"
There is no such thing as the Three Kings of the Far North within the Far North; it is just that these few are generally recognized as the most powerful lords in the Far North.
Among them, the Snow Empress is the most powerful, and is revered as the Northern Emperor by all the 100,000-year-old soul beasts and ferocious beasts. The imperial crown on her head is not just an ornament, but also a symbol.
"The Snow Queen, a snow goddess of six hundred thousand years, whose exact age is unknown, is the universally recognized ruler of the far north."
"Adding the 300,000-year-old Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion and the 200,000-year-old Titan Snow Demon King, I call them the Three Kings of the Far North."
"However, I still don't understand what it is about the three of us that warrants the three of you coming together."
In the past, Xue Di's target would definitely only be Shui Bing'er, but now Mu Ci has also been remembered by her.
It's hard for her not to remember such a unique human being.
However, Mu Ci's matter can be put aside for now. The most important thing now is to bring Shui Bing'er back to the Ice God Temple. The Ice God's orders cannot be ignored.
Thinking it over, Xue Di extended her slender white finger and pointed at Shui Bing'er beside Mu Ci, and said.
"Our target is her."
Upon hearing this, Mu Ci narrowed his eyes slightly, and began to quietly prepare his soul power. Then, he moved his body slightly to shield Shui Bing'er behind him.
Seeing this, Xue Di smiled slightly and thought more highly of Mu Ci.
"Don't get excited. We're looking for her because we have good news, and it's really great news."
"But before that, I want to apologize to you. Although I don't know how you and Atai got into a fight, I'd like to apologize to you on his behalf."
After speaking, Xue Di bent slightly and bowed to Mu Ci and the other two.
It wasn't that the Snow Empress truly wanted to apologize on behalf of the Titan Snow Demon King; it was simply that she had to do so for the sake of the future of the far north.
Of the three people in front of him, Shui Bing'er is the future Ice God, and Mu Ci is an unknown successor to the divine power—two future deities.
This forced the Snow Emperor to try to salvage some of the impressions of the far north in their minds.
Even if she could become a priestess and ascend to the divine realm together, the Ice Emperor is still in the lower realm. Even if she doesn't consider the far north, she should at least think about the future of her best friend.
"What exactly happened?"
Mu Ci was even more puzzled by Xue Di's actions.
What could possibly make the Snow Emperor bow down and apologize to these weaklings?
Could it be that these ferocious beasts have taken a liking to Shui Bing'er's talent and want to carry out a god-making plan ten thousand years ahead of schedule?
"It is the Ice God. The Ice God has chosen Miss Shui Bing'er as her successor, and we have come here to bring her back to the Ice God's Palace."
Xue Di's words left the three of them stunned.
Mu Ci looked at Xue Di in disbelief, and also doubted her own ears.
Heaven have mercy, when he told Shui Bing'er that there was an Ice God in the far north, it was just a speculation based on some information.
He couldn't guarantee 100% that there would definitely be a source of the Ice God's legacy in the far north.
But then again, if the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress already know about the Ice God at this point in time, then many things that happened ten thousand years later don't make sense.
Unless this ice god's actions were caused by his own butterfly effect.
Logically speaking, it's impossible for a super martial soul like the Ultimate Ice Phoenix to exist now.
Either the Ultimate Ice or the Ice Phoenix would already be among the top-tier martial souls, but now that the two are combined, their quality can even rival that of a god-level martial soul.
After all, even the Black and White Twin Holy Dragons, who became extremely famous ten thousand years later, were still quite far from achieving ultimate darkness and ultimate light.
If we add Shui Bing'er's current age to all of this, everything makes perfect sense.
If he were a god, he would also favor Shui Bing'er.
"Brother-in-law, is what you said true? There really is an Ice God in the far north."
Shuiyue'er was extremely excited at this moment, and kept shaking Muci's arm with both hands.
Shui Bing'er didn't show it so obviously, but her slightly widened, icy blue eyes and the white knuckles of her clenched hands revealed the unease in her heart.
This is a deity! Ever since she saw the divine thoughts of the Sea God in the basement of the Dugu Mansion, Shui Bing'er has had an endless longing for this level.
Now, when she heard from the Snow Emperor, the Northern Emperor, that she had been chosen by the Ice God, the excitement in her heart was beyond words.
If it weren't for her consistently calm and collected persona, she would have jumped right onto Mu Ci to show how happy she was.
Upon hearing Shui Yue'er's words, Xue Di looked at Mu Ci with even greater curiosity.
"Did you know that there is a legacy of the Ice God in the far north?"
Mu Ci was somewhat helpless as Shui Yue'er shook him, and he looked at Xue Di, nodding and shaking his head at the same time.
"I don't really know that there is the legacy of the Ice God in the far north; it's just an assumption based on those soul beasts with the bloodline of the Ice God."
The Snow Empress understood somewhat; there were quite a few soul beasts with the bloodline of the Ice God in the far north, so this assumption was quite reasonable.
"In that case, let's go first. It's still quite a distance from here to the core area."
Mu Ci turned around and exchanged glances with Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er, confirming their decision to travel with Xue Di.
Even if the three of them disagreed, there was nothing they could do. The Snow Empress, at the demigod level, was completely beyond Mu Ci's ability to handle.
Seeing that the three had agreed, the Snow Emperor's hand emitted a shimmering white soul light, carrying the group straight into the sky and flying away.
Chapter 124 Human Bingxue Na and Soul Beast Bingxue Na
The core area of the Far North.
"Tsk tsk, you really do act without hesitation, I admire you."
"Atai, from today onwards, I'll think more highly of you."
Ice Emperor, radiating a vibrant green soul light, smiled as he looked at Titan Snow Demon King, who was flying alongside him.
"Sigh, don't even mention it. I don't know how I got carried away. I was holding back at first, but then I just don't know what happened next."
Titan Snow Demon King was also somewhat troubled.
There's no way around it; that's just how their clan is. Once they go all out, they easily lose their temper.
"So, what exactly caused your fight? Have you explained the situation clearly?"
Titan Snow Demon King scratched his head and thought about it carefully.
"I only said one sentence, and then that male Soul Master said I was courting death."
"What did you say?" Hyotei pressed.
"I told him to hand over the people around him to me, and then he got angry."
Hyotei understood the logic in an instant and looked at Titan Snow Demon King with a strange expression.
"Oh, I see. Then I'm not surprised."
Titan Snow Demon King was puzzled.
"Why isn't it strange? Hyotei, what are you saying? I don't understand."
Seeing the other party's expression, Hyotei had no choice but to explain.
"I'm asking you, what are the genders of those people?"
"Male and female, oh no, in the human world they're called male and female."
Hyotei asked again.
"So what is their relationship?"
"Judging from their appearance, they must be a couple."
"So, don't you already understand everything?"
Titan Snow Demon King was stunned. He was about to ask how he understood when suddenly it was as if a thunderbolt had exploded in his mind.
The problems of Hyotei become interconnected when considered in the context of their own situation.
